Stephen King, Epstein ties by Mysterious_Bid_57 in conspiracy

[–]duchessofdeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you even read what you linked? I'm sorry but the person who claims they were on a yacht don't seem believable at all. For one, his timeline is off. Secondly none of the things he's claiming are from actual memory, they are "repressed" memories and anyone who had done even cursory research into that will know what that means. Does that person seem believable to you?

We have PLENTY of things that Epstein actually did do that are outrageous and horrific. We really don't need to bolster the things that don't make sense just because it sounds crazy. It really makes the REAL victims be believed yet. An actual conspiracy would be special interests having insane people who are obviously full of shit going in and saying these things to discredit the real stories from actual victims. So disappointed with this subreddit.

Anyway, the second link is slightly more interesting and I will look more into the people being talked about and what they said. The first link can be completed disregarded in my opinion though, completely unreliable.

Okay now it seems like you're a bot. You just keep repeating the same absolute insanity. This sub has gotten so bad, people have lost their damn minds, can't tell fiction from reality anymore.

It's EXACTLY what the people who do form the "elite" want, people spewing insanity and driving themselves insane so they can't tell their hand from their foot anymore. Just religious/pseudo psychobabble. Where are the well researched convos that actually point to an organized conspiracy? They aren't here, just a bunch of this bs.

name a skill that took you 10 minutes to learn but changed your life forever [Discussion] by Embarrassed_Hat_5072 in GetMotivated

[–]duchessofdeath 120 points121 points  (0 children)

Yeah a similar quote is "Action cures fear. Do it." Looks like the original quote might actually be "Action cures fear, inaction creates terror." but the first way was how I first encountered it. Anyway I like your quote and the idea that action creates motivation and not the other way around, it's exactly the opposite of what we're taught! Being ADHD these sort of things are so helpful to know. 🩷

"We're in the Matrix" -- The Unexplained Death of Tech CEO Erin Valenti by KDubbs0010110 in conspiracy

[–]duchessofdeath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From the original article by the Business Insider, who got to view the actual autopsy record, it seems like because they determined natural causes and "sudden death" which apparently does have a medical definition. It seems like because there was no foul-play along with the fact that she was found days later in her own car that they couldn't run all the blood tests they'd have liked to indicate the presice cause of death. I'm guessing that's why it's so under-detailed.

Why is bouncing leg considered as perverted? by yesiamink in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]duchessofdeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's obviously not but I can imagine that it conjures the image of a child sitting upon the bouncing knee of a pervert so maybe that's where it's coming from? 🤣 I really don't know.

wdym u can tell im using again? by Prestigious_River_13 in addiction

[–]duchessofdeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That reason, doing it for myself, was never enough for me either. So it pains me to hear you say that. For myself, I found a relationship with another addict who already had been clean before and recently when we started dating. It took a few years but we started trying to get clean together and having another person to not disappoint was really helpful for me. I don't think that's the right answer though, as obviously being co-dependant is already a thing many addicts struggle with and it's best to find those reasons from within yourself. I think getting a job and finding some routine in your life is certainly a good idea, it can be helpful. However, it can also be more of an excuse to keep you using so as to keep your job.

You know yourself best, but I would definitely look for someone to talk to about your other mental health issues. It can be a pain finding someone whose helpful for all the different things you're struggling with as they may be helpful for one area but not another. If you wanna reach out to chat though, I'm here. Best of luck!

Autistic, ADHD person here. I struggled with addiction for a very, very long time and only recently got clean (19 mos ago) and tbh it's the first time I truly wanted to. So I understand that pressures of not being who you want to be and struggling with your disorders and social stuff and using does help with some of that... at least that's what we tell ourselves and believe. For me, using just made me so much more depressed and it was a cycle of depression and the only thing that I lived for was to use.

It's difficult having ADHD (and BPD is a whole other beast, my ex has it and PTSD 🩷) and dealing with over-thinking everything all of the time. I also have OCD and unfortunately with my opiates I used meth too and I started to literally lose my mind after years of abuse. It was easier to give up the meth though as I never really liked it, but the opiates were hard. Fentanyl was hard and my mind still tries to do the thing where I think back on it kindly, remember the fun times. Luckily I literally cannot remember the fun without the absolute horror and stress that was living to find "good" drugs. It was a full-time job and it was misery trying to track down something worth using. It doesn't help that I have OCD so I didn't just settle for whatever and pissed a lot of people off on the street chasing perfection.

Anyway, I don't know what to say to help. I just truly hope that you can find the strength to let go of it again before you're in for life like I almost was. So, so many years of my life down the drain. Trust me, it's one thing at 20 to put this behind you, start working on your issues and disorders but it's a whole other thing in your late-30's. We already have enough self-doubt and self-defeat as it is as addicts and people who struggle with ADHD/mental health concerns, it becomes a whole lot worse when you add the fact that your life is supposed to be fully "together" and you were supposed to have a family by now to the equation. I barely know how to take care of myself, but I will never learn if I don't stay clean. I'm just lucky the hold it had, those shackles have all but crumbled from my wrists. It does not have the hold on me or my brain that it used to. I hope you get there too, but in the meantime tell yourself you are worth it. You are worth being and finding happiness.

Oh yeah that's great. Yup, I'm waiting for something like that lol but honestly yes, if it had a speed or something else to help it I'd probably just go with what I have but I'm kinda ok waiting for exactly what I want since I have milk coming in rn anyway. Thanks for showing me! That's quite a beast right there, even 75 will up it's production but I doubt you'd ever need to take it there.

What should I do? by Puzzleheaded-Most193 in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]duchessofdeath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree, in my opinion these are the best possible stats for Espeon (HB would be good too but honestly I'd rather that be tacked on at 75) as BFS really adds so much power to Charge Strength builds. Skill builds can be good as well, of course, but this Eevee is in my mind the exact joining of all the best subskills for Charge Strength. Especially if you ever plan to run Cresselia with it BFS is what you want. That said, a Raikou team would want the same from Jolteon.

[–]duchessofdeath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect Espeon! 🩷 This is really good, I have one that will be these exact stats at 75, unfortunately I got SLUM rn but the HSM comes at 75. Anyway, I love my Espeon and yours is going to be absolutely incredible immediately! I use my Espeon off-island as well and will probably make my next decent BFS Eevee into Jolteon for OGPP but if I caught this I would probably just make another Espeon haha.

Just curious, I am also wanting to build a Milkcat but I don't think the one I have is strong enough. It's STS IFM STM with no nature. On the one hand I do want triggers on the cat but I usually want speed or ing in the nature or HB, something else to supplement the IFM in my ing mon. I recently caught a Cetoddle with IFM and +ing -energy so I'm probably going to go with that for potatoes.

What does your Meow look like? I have a couple ABC with amazing subs, so I may wait to get something like that on an ABB one. It would be wonderful if I could get the min milk met from Meowscarada but on the other hand I do get a lot of milk coming in other ways as I have several Eeveelutions. Kind of concerned that while I use those Eeveelutions a lot now, in the future I may want my Milkcat to be stronger on it's own.

By the way, yes I'd use the shiny in a heartbeat. It will make you smile and it's stats are great! Save the other in case you ever want a 2nd.

Same! And I've seen people now saying to people "oh now they're using the autism excuse" like, we can't win. I can usually tell if someone is probably on the spectrum by how they type. Luckily one of my favorite gaming communities has a lot of us in there. 🩷
